A protection device for monitoring an energy supply grid has a measured value acquisition device for acquiring measured values which indicate an electrical state of the energy supply grid, and an evaluation device which is connected to the measured value acquisition device and is configured to carry out a plurality of protection functions and, as a result, to make a decision as to whether the energy supply grid is in a permissible or impermissible operating state. Here, the evaluation device be designed entirely in the form of a single neural network with an input neuron layer that receives the measured values and/or values derived therefrom, intermediate neuron layers, and an output neuron layer which outputs a classification of operating states of the energy supply grid. The neural network for classifying the operating states is trained to carry out all protection functions together.

Protection device and method for monitoring an electrical energy supply grid

An inquirer provides a support facility for a medical engineering system with a voice entry by means of a voice entry device. The support facility evaluates the voice entry by means of a voice recognition system and reacts correspondingly in that it outputs an acoustic output to the inquirer via an acoustic output device and an optical output via an optical device.
